Well, it is our planet.
Not like we signed some interplaneterial agreement to keep it tidy or such..?
..but more likely, some governments shooting down "enemy" satellites.

Using balloons for surveillance and warfare is an old science.

Professor Brian Cox[^] put it best today:
Quote: I've always suspected that an advanced alien civilisation with the technology to travel at close to light speed across interstellar distances would arrive in Earth orbit unobserved and proceed to dispatch a fleet of small, easily detectable balloons into our atmosphere.
Yep, that’s it. Must be aliens!

From a sites community when someone had tried to download a non existent version:
Quote: No we don’t have a VIB for VMware. Sorry about that. Looks like ChatGPT made up what the instructions might look like if we did have one. Alas we don’t, so it’s a work of fiction that you got from ChatGPT.

I had the same experience with chatGPT when I asked it:
"how can I make tabbed content using bootstrap?"
I wanted something like this simple example I had created in the past[^].
The first thing chatGPT did was offer a code example that used a non-existent version of bootstrap.
I was boggled on that one.
I went round & round with chatGPT but it never could create a simple example, even when I pointed it at my source code.
So, I'm a better Software Developer (so far) than chatGPT.

After having dug to a depth of 10 meters last year, French archaeologists found traces of copper wire dating back 1,000 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors had a telephone network all those centuries ago.
Not to be outdone by the French, English archaeologists dug to a depth of 20 meters and shortly after headlines in the U.K. newspapers read: "English archaeologists have found traces of 2,000-year-old fiber-optic cable and have concluded that their ancestors had an advanced high-tech digital communications network a thousand years earlier than the French."
One week later, Israeli newspapers reported the following: "After digging as deep as 30 meters in a Jerusalem marketplace, archaeologists had found absolutely nothing. They, therefore, concluded that 3,000 years ago the Israelites were already using wireless technology."
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
